solistenensemble stimmkunst

Personal details

The solistenensemble stimmkunst was founded by Kay Johannsen in 2003 for a highly regarded concert cycle of Bach’s cantatas. The ensemble sings mostly in the formation of 12 professional singers who take on both solo as well as choral roles. The emphasis of their work currently lies in the area of early music. They have already recorded a CD entitled Göttlichs Kind for Carus containing Advent and Christmas cantatas by Georg Philipp Telemann (Carus 83.180). A number of concerts performed in the Stiftskirche and at the Europäisches Musikfest Stuttgart with works by Charpentier, Monteverdi, Bach, Brahms and Reger were recorded by the Southwest German Radio.
